At truData Solutions, I deliver enterprise analytics across Finance, Accounting, Human Resources, Sales, Marketing, and Safety. I translate business requirements into scalable reporting and BI solutions.

I led the migration of enterprise reporting from Phocas to Power BI, recreating dashboards and business logic with DAX and data modeling. I also designed Microsoft Fabric semantic models to standardize metrics and support self-service analytics.

For Snowflake, I optimized a view by reducing its dataset from 100M+ rows to 2.3M rows; the published extract went from 2.5 GB to 40 MB, and refresh time from 60+ minutes to 6 minutes. I also developed 30+ Tableau solutions and delivered 15+ Power BI dashboards and reports.

Previously, at Experian, I built Tableau reporting for Global Finance, and at TD SYNNEX I developed Python automation and a Power Apps and Power Automate solution that saved approximately 80 hours of manual work per month. My earlier reporting and support experience includes Excel, Power Query, Active Directory, UNIX, and remote access.
